Beef Jerky
*Nate’s recipe. He makes great Jerky.
Ingredients
3-5# lean beef
½ c. soy sauce plus ¼ c. Worcestershire sauce (this will vary, it will depend on the amount of meat you smoke), just have 2 to 1- soy to Worcestershire sauce
2 T. brown sugar
black pepper to taste
red pepper flakes to taste
1 ½ T. onion powder
1 ½ T. garlic powder
Instructions
Slice the meat thin. I use a meat slicer.
Mix all ingredients, beside the meat, in a large bowl. Add some water to the bowl and add the meat.
Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
Smoke the beef in a smoker until the meat slices have dried out. This will take about 3-5 hours; this will depend on the type of smoker. Check and rotate them every half hour for even cooking. If cooking in the oven or dehydrator, add a couple drops of liquid smoke to the brine.
Store the jerky in Ziplok baggies and refrigerate.
